Free standing island I wanted that custom built-in island like I wanted to be Miss America when I was younger. Neither one worked out. But what we ended up with is so much better. Our kitchen island was only $399 from IKEA. It’s eight years old and still looks like new. The shelves are covered with a stainless steel liner and the island has a butcher block counter top and a place for stools on the other side.

Stacked Stone Fireplace - I wish our house had a stone fireplace. They are so majestic

The Diversion Project: At Long Last - Really liking this student project...I think i'll use it for a nice inspiration.
